This fee is non-refundable but can be transferred to the next Italy Retreat in 2025. The balance due for the full tuition is May 25, 2024.  A $100 late charge will apply to past-due payments.

CANCELLATION/REFUND POLICY

Cancellations received in writing or by email and postmarked on or 48 days before the retreat will receive a refund minus a $100 processing fee minus the $500 non-refundable deposit.
